Hines Ward Tackles His First Triathlon

After transitioning to the bike, Hines Ward lets his competitive show—passing other athletes and refusing to walk during the 6K run. Finishing close behind teammate and Challenged Athletes Foundation wounded warrior Eric McElvenny, Hines blows coach Paula Newby-Fraser's expectations out of the water and finishes in 1 hour and 27 minutes. At the end of the race, Hines refuels and prepares to take on his next challenge: an Olympic distance triathlon.
